This beach may appear picturesque with its adjacent forest, but don't be fooled by its beauty. The lack of basic amenities such as showers and toilets makes it a nightmare for anyone looking to stay overnight. Camping may seem like a good idea, but the absence of these facilities will make your stay anything but comfortable.

This stunning beach is located just a short distance from Vilamoura, providing a peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle of the crowded beaches in the area. The serene surroundings and crystal-clear water make for an unforgettable experience.

The climate was delightful, and the beach was dotted with socially distanced clusters of people. The atmosphere was tranquil and serene, with a beautiful expanse of sandy beach that was slightly rocky near the waves.

Experience the breathtaking sunset while taking a leisurely stroll through the picturesque cliffs or wander through the lush pine tree forest. It is advisable to avoid the influx of tourists during the peak season from mid-July to the end of August.

Going to this beach is like a never-ending joy ride. The only downside is the struggle to get there in your car, but hey, that's just a minor inconvenience. Once you arrive, the beach welcomes you with open arms, offering a vast expanse of sandy goodness to sprawl out on. There's no need to worry about feeling cramped or claustrophobic here - there's plenty of room for everyone. So, pack your bags, grab some sunscreen, and get ready for a day full of sun, sand, and salty sea air!
